-updates. Not sure about the xorg portion, because of bug 476874.

As discussed, this can be handled via an upstart job configured to start
whenever gdm dies. That upstart job should live in x11-common with the
rest of the bulletproof-X handling; so we don't have to patch the gdm
source to bring this back together, we just need to fix bug #441638.
** Also
Hmm - no, correction, it appears there's a change that needs to be made
to the gdm upstart job to support this (to support passing in the
XORGCONFIG env variable), in addition to the xorg changes.

Unless you're expecting an xorg upload soon, we'll probably be able to
copy these packages from karmic-proposed to lucid once built.
